Loire Shell

Name: Loire Shell
Brand: Ashley Wilde
SKU: LOIRE

Loire Shell is a softly muted shell pink with a calm, linen-rich surface and a plain, understated finish. The colour reads warm and airy, with a gentle blush that feels light rather than sugary.

About this fabric

Woven in 70% cotton and 30% linen, Loire Shell has the natural, lightly textured look of a refined plain cloth. At 142cm wide and with an 18,000 rub test, it is specified for light domestic upholstery as well as drapes and blinds, making it a versatile choice for schemes that need a softer, lived-in hand. The shade is a delicate shell pink with beige warmth, so it sits quietly rather than appearing bright or powdery. The weave catches the light subtly, giving the surface a dry, tactile character that suits relaxed interiors.

How to use it

Use this shell pink on a slim armchair, headboard or bench for a gentle lift without overpowering the room. It also pairs well with plaster, stone and pale timber tones in curtains or Roman blinds.

A gentle shell pink that works beautifully for soft upholstery and airy window treatments.

Pairs well with

Loire Shell is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
